Caveats
-
IN-141 - Unsupported installed rpms result in Canceled upgrade Symptom: GUI presents a failure on upgrade with the following text provided:
Error: transaction check vs depsolve:
example:
Cancelling upgrade of the second node on the router due to failure on this node:
Failed to install 128T-manifest-0:4.1.0.1.el7:
Error: transaction check vs depsolve:
iptables = 1.4.21-28.el7 is needed by iptables-services-1.4.21-28.el7.x86_64To diagnose the problem, try running:
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
. If this is a corrupted RPMDB, runningrpm --rebuilddb
may address the issue.Cause: Installed version of the RPM's coming from a later version of the Supported SSR OS version.
Corrective Action: For the offending RPM that comes from a different version of the OS than is installed and running, perform either operation:
- Remove the offending rpm (in the example above "iptables-services-1.4.21-28.el7.x86_64" would be removed
- Setup a new repo pointing to the support SSR-OS vault version and downgrade the related rpms
